Childminder holidays 08/11/2017 19:35 - Dublin North Childminders ----------------------------------- Hi
I have a childminder who comes to my home she works for 1 hour 45min in the morning and is free from 9 to 12. She then minds my 2 until circa 6/6.30. I pay 120 a day for 2 days a week.
Just wondering how holidays should work. Initially childminder said she would take holidays the sametime as me which waa fine and i have paid her for all holidays to date. She is entitled to 8 days leave per annum. She took 6 days sametime as me and 2 days she wanted specifically. When i mentioned to her that was her 8 days used she said that if i take any further holidays i have to pay her still. We took two days further holidays which i have also paid for. I was just wondering what the norm is re holidays and if this is it. I assume bank holidays should be paid for too.
Thanks
Rachel

re : Childminder holidays 10/11/2017 07:37 - Dublin North Childminders ----------------------------------- wow it seems a lot to me, but sure we all have different incomes. I get 240e for 3 days and I think it is more than enough. did she qualified childminder? do you pay tax for her?
re... : Childminder holidays 12/11/2017 16:47 - Dublin North Childminders ----------------------------------- Hi she has minded children for years and does her own taxes. It was what she told me the daily rate was. It doesnt change in the summer holidays etc.
